The Last House on the Left (1972) – Filming Locations
Where Wes Craven's The Last House on the Left was filmed in Connecticut: Poplar Plains Cemetery and pond in Westport.
Wes Craven shot his first feature in the countryside outside Westport, Connecticut, with the crew based at producer Sean Cunningham’s family home. Craven said the lake scenes were shot at the Weston reservoir.
Poplar Plains Cemetery and Pond
Address: Wilton Rd next to 287 Wilton Rd, Westport, CT 06880
Phyllis breaks away from Krug’s gang and is caught and killed in this small cemetery. The pond behind it is where Mari wades into the water and is shot.
The cemetery is open to walk, but there is no parking lot, so park down the street.
